Whilst development to date has been relatively slow, as with... [Lire la suite]

AROUND THE WORLD IN SELF-DRIVING CARS: ASIA
So far in this series, we gave an overview of driverless-car pilot projects across the globe and broke down the testing locations in North America and Europe.
This time, we will take a closer look at where these trials are taking place in Asia. This map zooms into Singapore, Shanghai and Tokyo, and charts the deployment sites for self-driving vehicles.
Shanghai takes a holistic approach
Last summer, Shanghai created a 100-square-kilometer closed course for testing of autonomous... [Lire la suite]
